"Crown home improvement got the project done quickly and did a fantastic job. They built the wheelchair ramp just the way we wanted it. It was to provide access to our 5th wheel travel trailer and it needed to be built so that it could be moved when we wanted to travel with the trailer"

"Mason did a great job on my home. He was there at 6:30am, and didn’t leave until 2:30pm. He made sure the house was shining before he left, the driveway showed noticeable differences. I had a soft wash done, which was perfect for the vinyl on my house. I would highly recommend him for any pressure washing needs."

"I was giving D&R fencings info and recommendation from my realtor and was quick to quick them. I scheduled a consult and that was done quickly. I received the estimate for the job not long after consult and when I decided to go ahead with the project they started after a few days. The craftsmanship is amazing and a very high quality. They are also great at communicating and answering any questions you may have. Highly recommend"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.
